[rufancoe00]

Tuesday or Wednesday ?

 

[Danprusa_4]

Let beat the Irish !

 

[RUKen]

Notre Dame will smoke you

Silly boy

 

[Proud NJ Sports Fan]

Defend the 3 and RU will advance

 

[rino_deez]

ND is 2-8 against Q1 teams, 4-9 against Q1/Q2. They haven't been through the guantlet

 

[RC1991]

Notre Dame will smoke you

F you and F Notre Dame. Hopefully that ******* Mike Brey will eat his words about shutting down the program.

 

[mikershoein]

Revenge from the pinstripe bowl

 

[HPNJRUfan]

Can't complain - first 4 is a good chance to win a game.

"win a game" - just to be in the first round. Hate the play-in.

 

[rufancoe00]

BS that Michigan got a non playin

 

[BeantownKnight]

Also - can someone explain to me, why - in our region - the play-in game is the #11 seed but in the South region, it's the #16 seed? Does the committee just look for at least 2 comparable teams per region and make that the play-in game regardless of seeding? I'm still new to the whole play-in concept.

Rutgers got a gift.

Agreed. That Michigan seeding is just bizarre. I would not be surprised if they get beaten handily.

 

[Danprusa_4]

Notes Dame should be about a 2.5 point favorite I’d think…intriguing game . Good luck!

Thanks! You as well with ur lions! Wait what team is that again haha

 

[AMBOY04]

Alabama would be rough if we win.

You can't beat Alabama unless you beat Notre Dame first. One game at a time.

 

[RedTeamUpstream94]

Notre Dame will smoke you

Rutgers ******* owns the state of Indiana!!!!

Your moms a gift

 

[Mr. Magoo1]

I would think ND will draw a bunch of people to Dayton.

 

[Zak57]

Definitely Wednesday. Don't know time yet

 

[ScarletDave]

ACC then SEC. gave me exactly what I wanted. Texas Tech will be another story, pray for them to get upset before

it isn’t a play in. We’re in the tournament.

I know you are a troll but salty a bit. You should get use to not making it going forward. Tool.

They will. They travel very well I’ll give them that

There are four playin games.
Two of them are the literal four worst seeds. They play into 16 seeds

Two of them are the last *at large* teams. They play into the last two at large spots, generally either a 11 or 12 seed depending on where the AQs come in

They literally said "tough strength of schedule and quality wins" after they seeded UM. We essentially had the same schedule and were 6-6 aginst Q1 opponents while they were 5-10 against Q1. Makes no sense.

Yeah, we get to play Notre Dame.

 

[Captain Hogleg]

Weird. Haven’t seen Syracuse announced yet. Are they in danger of not making the tournament?

 

[Big boy stan]

Nothing ever easy for this team. Always have to do it the hard way.

 

[HPNJRUfan]

it isn’t a play in. We’re in the tournament.

I get that we're "in" the tourney, but we're still a step behind everyone else being required to play an extra game. Feels hollow and like I said, a slap in the face.

Also just hate how the play-in ("first four") is set up for an 11 seed - just make it all the 16s.

Alabama would be rough if we win.

Bama is 100% 3s….we can beat them

 

[rutgersguy1_rivals]

I don’t follow MBB as much now. ND still a fave of the officials?

never understood why some of the play-in games arent the lowest seeds.

Sara loser

 

[BIGRUBIGDBIGredmachine]

Honestly feel like the first four is still a slap in the face.

Would agree if we hadn't lost to Lafayette.
